Mornin' Ya'all!!!
Okay, so I've been seein' a lot on the internet about this gal in Michigan who dressed up as a Boston Marathon Bomb Victim. She got fired from her job because of it, and people are furious on twitter and Instagram where the photo was posted.
Okay, I am one who is all about breakin' boundries, makin' fun of everyone, and just doin' whatcha wanna do in life. Lord knows I've bent over backwards, and forwards in some cases...heehee, to make sure I make a statement and get noticed.
And as usual, I'm on both sides of the picket fence on this one. And it's a sharp one, diggin' into my cooter pie...heehee
I mean come on ya'all, people dress as so many other dead people from history, even as recent as Car Accident Princess Diana. And at the times of their deaths it was shocking, and back then, people didn't dress as real people who died ie: with blood and such. If you dressed as someone who died, you did Abraham Lincoln, not Abraham Lincoln with his brains blown out!
So here's two things I believe. #1. It is definitely too soon. Come on ya stupid bitch! and #2 That's what our society has become, and I've been sayin' this fer a while now!!! We got Miley gettin' naked, horrifying shows like 'The Walking Dead', which is actually a very emotionally heartbreaking drama, but with zombies, too real for me ya'all! Plus with all the reality shows that tare people apart, break them down, all for ratings!!!
We need more comedy sitcoms on TV. TV is supposed to be a place where we want to forget about reality, and forget about our cares of the day, and instead, it's telling us how to slap eachother around, manipulate, deceive and lie to one another!!! I am truly against Reality TV, I like shows for their fake stories, I don't want to see other peoples bullshit!!!
Lemme know what ya'all think...
Well, I guess there's my rant ya'all. LMAO!!!
Have a Happy Day Ya'all!!!
XX...Jolean
I personally think it is disgusting, What if it was your family member that got blown to bits? Wouldnt be to funny would it? As for the reality TV obsession I think it is easy to get sucked into it because misery loves company. I think when people watch other peoples problems it makes them feel better about their own lives knowing other peoples lives are often much worse and more dramatic. As far as the comedy aspect I have got to agree with you, We need more comedy and feel good shows out there! I remember growing up watching hee haw with my grandparents and just laughing and laughing. I think the comedy that you and Sue do on your blog is so classic. It is like a modern day girlie hee haw! The way you two banter back on forth on here is so funny! It is my guilty pleasure cause when I am feeling down and the kids are getting to me, I just read the blogs and the comments and it just makes me laugh and feel really good. We need more things like that in the world! Just good feel good laughter!! So thank you and Sue both for truly making a bright spot in the world. Like the sun comin out on a cloudy day, you two are my sunshines!!
ReplyDeleteahh thank you! that is very sweet of you! made my day too! :)
DeleteI agree with you totally girl! And thank you sooooooo very much!!!! You made my day! :) Thanks again for all your support! Glad to make you smile. :)
ReplyDeletewell i gots to say that at one time in my life i got into a few of those reality shows. i guess it is just like a real life soap opera although you know that some of that stuff is scripted. i dont know why it draws you in but it can if you let it. my grams used to watch days of our lives all the time and i thought it was so dumb how the people kept dying and coming back to life all the time lol and my grandmas friend was so addicted to soaps she would watch some and tape some to the point that most of her days were spent watching soap operas lol and as far as the bomber thing goes, i think it is in poor taste and i agree it is too soon to go there. but even if it wasnt to soon i just really dont like to see people make light of other peoples tragedies. i mean my humor is weird to alot of people, hubby included, but i dont like to make fun of really horrible things like that.
ReplyDeleteGood call girl! :) I grew up with 'Days' as well, but I think that's why I like that shit cuz its so ridiculous! heeheeheeee.....
DeleteAnd I do admit, I used to be a Real Houswives fan, until they started switchin' up the characters, I get confused...LOL!
If ya'all wanna watch 2 new hilarious comedies on TV, check out 'The Crazy Ones' and 'Mom'. They both just got picked up for a full season!
Have a great day ladies!!!!
